15 years of staunch environmentalism in Middleton's Pheasant Branch Conservancy

"When angry residents organized against the Middleton City Council in 1995 over a plan to put sewer lines through a nature preserve, many people — including some of the angry residents — thought the group would dribble away once the issue blew over. Instead, the group, Friends of Pheasant Branch Conservancy, is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year after establishing itself as an often tough-minded environmental voice in the community."
